Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This is a prospective randomised open label trial involving all medical patients admitted to North Shore Hospital from April to July 2015 with hyponatremia secondary to SIADH. Patients will be randomised to one of two management groups: Fluid restriction <800ml alone, or a combination of fluid restriction with oral urea powder (10gm oral urea powder dissolved in 200ml of water or orange jouce given three times a day). The primary end points include time to reach sodium >128, and time to hospital discharge. Once the sodium is >128mmol/L, the primary trial will end and the fluid restriction will be changed to 1000ml and urea stopped. The primary investigator will discuss the intervention (fluid restriction and urea) with the patient and family as well as nursing staff to ensure it is adhered to.

Comparator / control treatment
Control: Fluid restriction only (standard treatment). The patients will have a measuring jug left at their bed side to carefully measure all oral fluid intake. A sign stating "800ml fluid restriction" will be placed at each patient's bed so that other staff/family are aware of this fluid restriction. Nursing staff will be asked to carefully document all oral fluid intake on a daily basis. The fluid restriction will be changed to 1000 ml when sodium is >128mmol/L.

Treatment arm: Fluid restriction + Urea tablets
